George W. Bush discovered hiding out in Pakistan

The War on Crap Poetry.

Patient and steady with all he must bear,
Ready to meet every challenge with care,
Easy in manner, yet solid as steel,
Strong in his faith, refreshingly real.
Isn't afraid to propose what is bold,
Doesn't conform to the usual mould,
Eyes that have foresight, for hindsight won't do,
Never backs down when he sees what is true,
Tells it all straight, and means it all too.
Going forward and knowing he's right,
Even when doubted for why he would fight,
Over and over he makes his case clear,
Reaching to touch the ones who won't hear.
Growing in strength he won't be unnerved,
Ever assuring he'll stand by his word.
Wanting the world to join his firm stand,
Bracing for war, but praying for peace,
Using his power so evil will cease,
So much a leader and worthy of trust,
Here stands a man who will do what he must.

I was looking for this after I read the story on the BBC website... what joy! It's in a Pakistan school poetry book --childen have now officially been told to 'ignore it'.

I note the BBC site has a sisebar question 'Can Musharraf defeat extremists without western help?' but surely the question should be 'Can Musharraf defeat extremists without help from Western extremists?'
